AnyCount is accessible when creating new jobs and quotes: from New/Edit Draft Client Job, New/Edit Client Job and Project Tree page.

Let us take a closer look on using AnyCount in Translation Office 3000 V8 on the example of using it when creating a  Client Job.

When you open New Client Job window you specify the job name, group and service at first. AnyCount comes at a hand when you need to specify the volume of the job and thus the job cost.
For example, you can count the source file for translation and count results will be automatically entered to the Volume field.

To count using AnyCount:

1. Select the volume units from the corresponding drop-down list.

Note: If the units selected where not specified as "Used by AnyCount" you will not be able to perform the count. This option is available on the Volume Units page of the Business Settings. It was implemented to distinguish volume units, that cannot be used as text volume units (e.g. "hours").

2. Click button.

3. Specify the necessary file in the Open dialog box.

Note: If you call AnyCount from the Project Tree page, you will need to specify the count units in the special  Select Unit dialog first.

4. AnyCount Engine starts once you select the file and click Open button and count results are entered to the Volume field of the New Client Jobs window; expanded count report is added on the AnyCount Notes tab which appears after AnyCount is used:

Settings

You can adjust count settings (e.g.counting Footers/Headers for .DOC or Meta keywords for .HTML) for each of the supported files formats on the AnyCount page of the Personal Settings window. To open it click menu Settings >  Personal.
